Listen "Pain and Suffering by Ratnaguna"
Episode Synopsis
Pain and Suffering is the first of two talks that Ratnaguna gave earlier this year at the Stockholm Buddhist Centre. He explores the whole area of feeling, both pleasant and painful, but especially the pain side of the spectrum. Using storytelling, poetry, and clear Dharma teaching, Ratnaguna asks, "What kind of life are you living if you are not really in your body? When you resist the pain, you resist everything." When we face our own suffering, then we find something else… a deep sense of wisdom and kindness. Coming up next week… Part II Pleasure and Happiness by Ratnaguna.
